Things Are Afoot

I've mentioned street artist, Ben Wilson (the chewing gum guy) previously. He's well known now for painting bits of chewing around London that people have spat on the floor. If you've walk over the Millennium Bridge, then you'll have encountered his art, as that particularly bridge is festooned with hundreds of them. It seems to be his pet project

There were just four people for my regular Sunday wander around East London yesterday. Here they are:

Ella and James that you can see there on the right actually live not far from Old Street roundabout where we began the walk. They've recently moved here from Australia. Anyway ... it didn't take us long to discover that the ubiquitous Ben Wilson has been back in the Old Street area painting some newly masticated bits of gum. There were a few around Old Street and we spotted a new one on Rivington Street. I have to say ... they're pretty good.
